Today, Mew and her friends arrive at the Pokemon Center in the town they just arrived at. They walk inside and approach the desk.
"Hello?" Mew calls out.
"Nurse Joy!" Tomo calls out.
As Mew and Tomo call out to Nurse Joy, someone spots them and walks away
"Wonder how come nobody's here," Mew wonders.
Soon, the group hears a Chansey, and right on cue, a Chansey shows up
"Chansey? Where's Nurse Joy?" Mew questions.
Right as Misty asks, Nurse Joy appears and says, "Nurse Joy's performing a Pokemon examination."
Everyone puzzled and confused by the 'Nurse Joy' standing in front of them
"Misty, isn't she Nurse Joy?" Molly asks.
Misty turns to her, "They must have two Nurse Joys assigned to this Pokemon Center."
But Brock calls out, "Wait!" and rushes in front of 'Nurse Joy,' "This isn't Nurse Joy! This is an imposter!"
Everyone becomes baffled.
"You saw through my disguise, Brock! I should've known better than to try to fool you," 'Nurse Joy' says.
"Hey, how'd you know his name's Brock?" Jen asks.
Suddenly, the Chansey reveals itself to be a Ditto using Transform.
"Ditto?! Then..." Everyone replies, surprised.
"That's right!" 'Nurse Joy' says.
The imposter goes behind a pillar and comes back out as a familiar face, Duplica.
"I remember you, do you remember me?" The girl happily says.
"Duplica!" Everyone, but Molly and Jen say happily.
Moments later, Mew and the others introduce Jen and her Pokemon, and Molly to Duplica and Ditto, and soon the group gets acquainted with each other.
"We haven't seen you for a long time," Mew says.
"I know! I can hardly believe we ran into each other like this!" Duplica says.
"So, what are you and Ditto doing here, Duplica?" Brock asks.
"We were invited to perform at this," Duplica says, and slides a poster towards them.
Brock looks at the poster, "Hey! The Pokémon Acting Competition!"
"Yeah!" Duplica says, "Every year, the Pokemon Council for the Performing Arts asks a whole bunch of trainers and their Pokemon to come for a week and compete in shows and plays and things."
As Duplica explains the competition, Team Rocket is spying on them
"You know, that girl looks familiar," James says
"Of course she looks familiar!" Jessie angrily says, "How could you forget her?! She's that detestable Ditto trainer!"
"Yeah! Ditto's the Pokemon that toins itself into other Pokemon!" Meowth says
"Wouldn't it be nice to bring the boss one of those?" James replies.
"My thoughts exactly," Jessie says.
Back in the Center, the light over the examination room goes off, which makes Duplica happy. Nurse Joy rolls out a stretcher with a Ditto.
"That wasn't so bad, now was it?" Nurse Joy replies.
Duplica, Mew and the others approach as the other Ditto leaps into Duplica's arms.
"Hey, who's this, Duplica?" Misty asks.
